Step 2:

Unbox the case. This is a full ATX, so it's pretty big.

Step 4: If you're using a ridiculously large aftermarket HSF like I am, it probably will come with a back mounting bracket. Put that on.

Step 5: Insert the motherboard into the case. Make sure you put the back-panel in first. It should fall into place almost naturally. Then screw it in place.

Step 6: Prepare to insert the CPU. This part always worries me a bit. As this is an LGA socket, the pins are on the motherboard instead of the CPU, making it slightly harder to damage the CPU.

Yeah, this is /g/. There are questions all the time.

This is good advice. Unfortunately, I just put a straight line.

Step 7: Thermal paste. Lots of arguments on how to apply this. I went with the suggestion from arctic silver (even though I just used noctua's thermal paste).

Next, all those candycane wires running from the case. These are your power/reset/HDD LED switches. ASUS motherboards come with a nice little connector to make it easier to plug them all in.

Side note: The HDD LED on this case is blinding.

How about everyone who builds a PC from now on documents it and shares with /g/ so you can learn about your mistakes as OP is learning it right now? He's not perfect, but he's sharing his experience.

The one restart? I can turn that off, by reducing the voltage to the processor. But considering I barely turn my computer off and I'd rather have the correct voltage... I don't give a fuck.

Its a fucking semi passive highest quality PSU that in test in hotbox 50C have same results as in 20C room, I have seasonic X also.
It does not fucking care that in full tower there is some GPU 20cm above it.

But as I said before, for semi passive PSU its fucking better to have opening(fan hole) to let hot air escape the PSU case instead of accumulating it inside it until fan starts to rotate...

All you had to do was put in a motherboard, a proc, a vid card, an ssd, and a psu. And you fucked that up?

Try this on for size: 5 HDD. 2 Video cards in SLi. Watercooling setup with 3 blocks for CPU and both Video Cards. 3 Radiators. A Bay Reservoir. 2 Pumps. Drainage System. 12 Yate fans. 10gB DDR3, PSU & CPU.

dunno where you get that, my R3 runs a 2600k @ 4.5 and idles at 30 loads at 60. This is with 3 non stock fans, all running at 600-1800 rpm (on a dial), so has negligible impact on noise. It's worth noting, all my HDD bays are full, so really it should be alot hotter in there, but the case manages nicely. Enjoy your butthurt.

When its in passive mode - fan does not rotate there is only small amount of warm air escaping the psu inside the case where its removed by case fans quite fast.

When under load and some higher amount of actually hot air could be produce it actually help with outtake

Could be, but I also tweaked the fan settings to be a bit lower. I just checked a thermostat and my apartment is 31C (and I am sweating bullets), which means +5/6 over ambient? I have no idea if that's acceptable.

when passive kicks off, you're still cooling the PSU with warm air from the case. maybe if your ass wasn't crusted onto your seat you could move some of your piss bottles out of the way once and a while to clean out your filters. it's not really that much of a bother.

Again for the retads

First
as I said before imbecile, its fucking highest tier PSU(seasonic X or corsair AX) that does not care for few degree higher temp, you know that for ages PSU used to be at the top actually serving as exhaust fan

Second
Also front fans are blowing cool air from the front and PSU is at the bottom. Hot air rises to top exhaust fans, there is not much hot air that could go inside the psu retard.

Third
Real dust filters you would have to clean weekly. Those covers you see on cases bottom are just named dust filters but they don't do much of a work filtering normal dust that you see plenty in PC cases after some time even with dust filters on all intakes.

fourth
go eat shit and die you valiant dust cleaner. With your knowledge/IQ it will be probably all you ever do

Just to check my temps, I ran Prime 95 for 10 minutes. I'm guessing the CPUTIN temp. is a misread, because nothing caught fire (and nothing else reported that). Core temps quickly hit 56ish after a minute, but stableized. The cpu fan was only at 60% speed, so I imagine I could lower those if need be.

In other words, I'm not worried.

These sandy bridges are like retard friendly for overclocking, seriously I was shocked how simple it is on these chips.

You might be tempted to use your AI Suite but dont use the bios. 5GHZ is easy on the 2600k but requires some voltage, thus more heat.

I can do 4.8ghz stable at 1.365vcore 1.85pll.
100% load temps are 66-70 on the 4 cores.
